Her unscrupulous uncle's family stole her marriage arrangement with the Marquis's household, then made her take her cousin's place as the bride in a marriage meant to bring good fortune to a sick man.

Her husband died young, and she lived in poverty. She envied her cousin Su Yingying, who married into the Marquis's household and enjoyed a life of wealth and luxury.
